PASO ROBLES — Amidst pleasant wintertime weather, Paso Robles participants gathered last Saturday, Feb. 23 for a grand opening celebration of a new segment of the Salinas River Trail.

The new concrete trail section is between Navajo Avenue and 13th Street. It connects a trail at Larry Moore Park to the trailhead at the 13th Street bridge.

Among those in attendance for the dedication of a new sculpture was Barbara Partridge, chairwoman of the annual Paso Robles Festival of the Arts.
